• Keep solid combustibles, such as building materials,
paper or cardboard, a safe distance away from the heater
as recommended by the instructions.

the combustion chamber.
• Never use the heater in spaces which do or may contain
volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as
gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or unknown
chemicals.
• During operation, this product can be a source of
ignition. Keep heater area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, paint thinner, cleaning solvents and

areas with high dust content. Minimum heater clearances
from combustible materials: three (3) feet from the sides &
two (2) feet from the top.
DANGER
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This heater is a combustion appliance. All combustion
appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the
combustion process. This product is designed to produce
extremely minute, non-hazardous amounts of CO if used
and maintained in accordance with all warnings and
instructions. Do not block air flow into or out of the heater.
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flu-like
symptoms, watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue and
possibly death. You can't see it and you can't smell it. It's
an invisible killer. If these symptoms are present during
operation of this product get fresh air immediately!
• For outdoor use only .
• Never use inside house, or other unventilated or
enclosed areas.
• This heater consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in
unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering
your life.
WARNING
We cannot foresee every use which may be made of our
heaters.

questions about heater use.
Other standards govern the use of fuel gases and heat
producing products for specific uses. Your local authorities
can advise you about these.
If no local codes exist, follow National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1. In Canada, installation must conform to local
codes. If no local codes exist, follow the current National
standards of CANADA CAN/CGA-B 149.2.

WARNING
Assembly Instructions
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is
invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally
added to help detect leaks and can be described as a
“rotten egg” smell. The odorant can fade over time so
leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will
sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition
sources including matches, lighters, sparks or open flames
ofanykindmanyfeetawayfromtheoriginalleak.Useonly
propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance with
local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off
propane when not in use.
